long time no see. have been really busy! haven't been blog surfing-cum-tagging too.. =\ lessons just ended so i tot i should take some time to update my blog...
hmmm... was involved in several events lately.
interblock games are on =) i love it. haha coz i get to exercise and have fun at the same time. lost galaga (sth like street soccer) last night, through penalty kicks! haha nerve-wrecking sia! tonight's vball =) hope it will be exciting as well, and not some serving game like the last match we played. lol.
attended hall ball/ dinner&dance last sat! it was quite fun. the girls dressed up as some cool (but buck-teeth) vampires. why buck-teeth? ask the manufacturer of the vampire teeth. might post some pics up in a few days time maybe? attending sports ball this sat. hope it'll be fun as well. i will be dressing up as some Greek.
becoz of all these, my expenditure for the past few weeks is like.... ~woah~ *shakes head*
sent Marge off last week. miss her!!! hope she'll be happy over there. TAKE CARE margy! =) Ber, Bong and I met this nice French business man by the name of Michel on the train. hahaha quite cute lah. our conversation lasted from ... Expo ? to City Hall leh! LOL he even gave us a namecard and asked us to email him. (haven't made any effort to contact him though)
have been going for driving lessons too. yay, finally booked my pract test date. 8 NJov! hope all goes well. I'm getting sick of Eunos, and the driving centre has sucked ENOUGH money from me liao lah! Can't imagine failing... got to 'donate' another hundred plus bucks ... GEE. driving in Singapore is really expensive man. but so far driving is quite fun. hehe. learning is proceeding quite smoothly. just the occasional horribly stupid errors which give me an immediate failure. had to turn right into the driving centre but somehow i mistook the building beside it as the centre... and the instructor said that 'where u going? u want to buy car?'
yep ok i think that's all for now. i feel sleepy!!! =( sleeping late and waking up early is torturous. and i still have tons of tutorials to do, several presentations to prepare, loads of catching up for lectures.... and the list goes on. jia you jia you jia you!!!
i think i must be missing the softballers a lot a lot coz... .... hahahahaha i had a very weird dream. was watching all the old softball videos and i started crying ... and it's not the tearing-crying but the ... wailing-crying. LOL

welcome to the life of a freshie
hello all! feels as if i haven't been in here for awhile. i have been busy! and also partly because i didn't have a laptop yet for the past 2 weeks. collected my Acer TravelMate yesterday! I like it =) just that i queued almost for an hour plus for that... yucks.
anyway... uni life is pretty nice. i enjoy staying in hall, or rather, in hall 3 block c! hehehe coz there are so many nice people around and it's fun. jun jia works in some catering thingy and she always have nice food for us. yum yum! and there's daph, cheryl and ching to listen to their advice.. there's "u-scrub-my-back, i-scrub-your-front"- denyse, and other friendly seniors and freshies around. so... *yay*! had a mini cooking session with constance and estee on friday evening.
menu: pork chop served with broccoli & carrots, and also mushroom soup. wheee!!!
but ah... i want more sleep!!! have been sleeping later and studying later too... took part in interblock games (netball & bball so far) which are in the evenings.. and by the time we go back to hall ,finish bathing and stuff, it's 11 plus liao. then i start studying. =\ i used to close books by 11 pm. i sleep at 1 plus 2. i used to sleep by 12. i think nobody in hall sleeps before 12. gee.
uni is definitely different. u see people smoking everywhere ( =\ ) and u feel as if u are a grown-up now, entrusted with greater responsibilities etc. and of course there's pressure to do well. got to do some presentation next week with less than a week of preparation. each lecture covers so much and sometimes u leave the lecture thinking "huh? what was that all about?" that's why i lugged home my thick textbooks home... shall attempt to read through them painfully. heh and it's a bit hard to catch what some of the ang-moh/indian/hong kong ... lecturers are saying. need some time to get use to the way they speak... go Jo!
ok shall update again! =) looking forward to a new week. hall dinner and dance next sat!

start of a new term!
Tml will be officially the first day of school! I'm a little excited =) I hope the first day turns out as well as the orientation camps ... hee. At least the people I've met so far were all nice and friendly.
I think I had a nice long break since As ended. Too long though. Brain is kinda rusty already. Did lots of things which were really memorable and fun. The 3 months at my primary school was really enjoyable, felt really good to be back and I could also relieve the good old childish days. The next 3 months at PLKN (malaysian army) was also rather ... ... interesting. Other than the language barrier and lots of time wasted while waiting, I pretty much enjoyed myself there! hee hee. It was a good chance to experience a different culture and also to try out many things that I've never done before. Ehhh... and there was also the fanstastic Sports Camp... a test of my limits and also a chance to try fun stuff such as knee boarding and rockclimbing =)
I attended a little bit of hall camp as it clashed with sports camp. I like the girls haha ermm the guys... they can do much better. Played station games at night... it was pretty fun. I like water games. heh. But it was reaaaally cold that night. And there was this digusting station where we had to transport this long string of ... fish, chicken feet, liver and pig intestines (all raw btw) through the sleeves of our shirts. GROSS right!?!?! The girls were kinda high that night, heehee, sang lots of songs loudly to ourselves. I think we can click relatively well, which is good since we'll be seeing each other quite often in the same block.
We played Amazing Race the next day... and hmmm... somehow the girls were the ones leading the way and urging the others (mainly the guys..) to move a bit faster. GEE. Anyway I left in the late afternoon as the sports camp people were meeting later in the evening for dinner and clubbing. We went Zouk. Hmmm... I had fun dancing with my friends, but clubbing is really not my cup of tea. I can't see myself being in love with cigarette smoke and loud music...
We had prata at 3 plus... and hung around for quite a while. We wanted to avoid paying the midnight charge taxi fare so we waited until 6am. YAWN. But we couldn't find a taxi until 6.20am... =( So in the end I reached home only at 7am... and slept all the way until 4 pm. Pig!
Met up with Ber Candice and Bong recently =) Had dinner and shopped around for awhile... Hope we'll still be seeing each other very often!!! We will, right dears? =)
Okie, I'm going to hall already... haven't got a laptop yet so I dunno when I'll update again. Not too long! take care people!
